Henderson, Solomon Islands - Port Moresby, New Guinea - Moose4 - 06-01-2008 Here's my first "real" flight with Digital Aviation's awesome new Fokker 100. This is Air Niugini flight 85, AGGH-AYPY, a long overwater flight. It had a few interesting moments, between me learning this very complex airplane and the weather...
